Um, What the Hell?
- The newly-created agency that investigates allegations of excessive force and brutality by Chicago Police officers plans to hire outside help due to a backlog of complaints.
The Independent Police Review Authority is an organization separate from the Police Department. It replaced the department-run Office of Professional Standards last year.
Since its creation, the review authority has dealt with a growing backlog of cases, and the Chicago Tribune reported on Wednesday that the organization has had to turn over some cases to attorneys and private investigators.
The outsourcing is temporary and will be tightly supervised.
We don't know about any of our readers, but we trust the City about as far as we can throw the fifth floor midget. We trust outside lawyers and PI's about half that distance and we trust IPRA maybe a third of the remaining millimeters.
We don't recall any contract language, Rule, Regulation, General Order or, in fact, any such directive that could conceivably allow outsiders not covered by agreements to investigate Police Officers in any way, shape or form. This is a ridiculous and dangerous precedent and should be dealt with promptly and harshly by the FOP.

When the rights of the citizens are taken away from inside the country, they do it slowly and one step at a time.
The government, the taxing and all the bullshit regulations are going to kick them all in the ass one day when the citizens revolt and have a modern day Boston Tea Party.
One can only hope that instead of tea that is thrown overboard, the throw the elected officials, the aldermen, the mayor and all the lawyers!
off topic but please indulge me
Im going to propose and ammendment to the FOP by-laws which would allow people who dont attend meetings the oppurtunity to run for office
You may not want to vote for me because I was too lazy to get my ass to the meetings BUT I should be allowed to run

Hi SCC,
New Flash! As I predicted, it appears Jody Weis will be bringing a former FBI SES to lead the CPD/IAD. According to reports it will be Patrick Daly who was the SAC of the FBI San Juan Office. This appointment was long needed and well thought out. IAD needs invigoration and new direction.
I also believe that the IPRA will reach out to retired Federal Agents along with retired State and Local officers with investigative experience. This makes sense because you have former sworn criminal investigators who would meet any law enforcement certification requirements (i.e California POST). This would bring in competent ad experienced investigators who will bring out the truth.

More contracts that is the daley way, his friends need more millions for no show no work! Another way for daleyinc. to cheat the system! Why don't we just have the revs investigate us?
(OT) I work on the East end of 008, yesterday we had a 10-1 at Archer and Mobile beat 878 called it! Got to the scene the female (Name withheld) was there all dressed nicely make-up perfect, the guy on the car was out of breath uniform in disarray what was the female doing except for using the radio! Not saying all females are bad but WTF! If your on the job and your partner is in shit do more than just call for help! Many are in clouted positions but at least protect your partner! On another note Kennedy high school like many others are cesspools of shit, nothing like bussing the shit in from other areas, they should all go to neighborhood schools and let them tear each other up! Nothing like all the illegal mexicans doing the gang shit thing, we need to send all this shit back to mexico!
Sounds like a contract violation and lawsuits a plenty!
The FLOP is a joke
i hate to say it but i agree with the guys and gals who are laying low. this is definatly not the time to be doing anything that could possibly put you under investigation.
Naturally, it'll be connected firms!
Maybe "fast eddy's" law firm can get some law contracts; and isnt
his brother a private dick?
can't and won't happen. someone needs to teach all the newbies in charge about unions and contracts.
To the poster comparing FOP to certain overly large individuals, think of a better analogy. We can think of plenty of better ones.
Now that we have a bona-fide FBI man for our leader, does this mean we can have a BBQ and booze at the firing range?
Maybe some entertaining fisticuffs will break out, this is gonna be great!
Contract! We have a contract??
Grau for 1st Deputy.
Off topic! The other day the 013 District Commander had her city vehicle ticketed and towed by 018 District 2nd watch. Since we are in "paranoia mode" shouldn't she face some discipline for having her vehicle towed????

Why is this city outsourcing everything?
They're not just using one company, but numerous ones...
?
From a management standpoint, it sounds like they don't know what the hell they're doing... hence the backlog.
Contract?? We don't _have_ a contract (anymore).
(hummmmmmmmmmmmer hummmmmmmmmer)
FOP challenge what? The only thing your All-Irish FOP can do is through drinking parties in other states and weep and swoon around memorials. Maybe if you half-wits voted for someone other than sell-out turkeys such as Nolan, Donahue and Dineen you might one day have real leadership to stand up for us and there just might be less officers to memorialize.
OFF TOPIC...
Welcome J-FED! A couple of the hairball, scrubbing bubble looking uniformed POs that I see once in a while have cleaned-up their act. ZZ Top beards gone and a hair trim. Christ sake, the Irish cheer leader even bought a hat to carry around. Now I'm not saying I'd send them up against street thugs, but maybe they could take on a Nazi cocktail waitress in a pinch.

Whats wrong with the female sgts in 18?
Worked cta and was listening to Zone4 this week. What The F@@@ is is wrong with 1830 2nd watch. STFU spoke to a couple of 18th dist folks. They had to have been kidding me. Is she really as bad as they said?
Whats with 1820 is she as bad? I heard her own people hate her. It got so bad she and her folks got into a shouting match. The W.C. had to be called to separate them and swiftly sent her away to calm her down. WTF?
I bet Al Sharpton, Jesse J. and Eugene Pinchham would all like a piece of that action.
The city has been able to hire "provisional" employees in the past. If the city counsel creates a budget for temporary investigators, as long as they are under the supervision and follow the rules of IPRA this is probably legal. This might take months if not a year or more to get started.
What I would like to see is what the LAPD has, a statute of limitations on citizens complaints. Unless it involves a crime, a citizen’s complaint cannot be acted upon after 18 months. If it involved a crime, the statute of limitations of the crime takes precedence.
Frankly, I would rather deal with a professional, a retired law enforcement officer, who does not have an ax to grind than some of the anti-white racist OPS hacks I had to deal with years ago.
Stay safe, get your union lawyer, and answer all questions carefully.

Who is State's Attorney Tom Allen? And, why are they pimping police officers in his political campaign commercials? Somebody fill me in please.
speaking of useless females whats with the two nitwits from area 2.
we had a misfortunate death of a child in 004 on saginaw, the area send us two morons. how are they supposed to investigate a crime scene in high heels? the one goof was wearing high heels and a long
full length coat and constantly complained that she would not enter the crime scene because she did not want smoke residue on her clothing. i thought i met some miserable men on this job this fruit cake tops it all with the negative attitude, it is embarasing in front of the fire dept, human services etc that this is a chic police detective. at least the arson detectives were profesional.
COMPLETE AND UTTER BULLSHIT
An off-duty Chicago Police officer was charged today with aggravated driving under the influence after he allegedly crashed his sports utility vehicle into another car on Nov. 22, leaving two people dead.
He is getting railed here just because he is a PO. No where near leagal drunk when given a breath test and a first grade kid could tell from the damage of the vehicles that what is being reported in the papers is not how the accident happened
This just shows you how unprepared this women is, first of all most Attorneys if not all don't have a clue as to what the rules are. most Attorney's if no all look at our general orders and special orders etc. and have a good laugh because they are poorly written. Unless you were a Military Attorney this is not going to happen. She is over her head.
Anyone see the connections between Sup. Weis, Mayor, President Bush, Feds, Contracts and the 2016 Olympics?
2:57am
You 009th dist tact guys are a complete joke! Look at how you come on here looking for praise, because JJ and TB made an awesome pinch the other day. Word in 009 is Cmdr Roy is disgusted by your lack of quality arrests and that he thinks some of you need to go back to 3rd Watch. JJ should be on tact right now! He has proven time and time again you don't measure up to his work. How about losing dogass tact guys like WM, MM and giving JJ a shot?
Keep patting yourselves on the back for doing zilch. JJ and TB will continue the REAL POLICE legacy...Rock on Beat 921!!!

B.O. & R.A. better be careful the new sup doesn't get your names because of this blog.

An off-duty Chicago Police officer was charged today with aggravated driving under the influence after he allegedly crashed his sports utility vehicle into another car on Nov. 22, leaving two people dead.
John Ardelean, 33, is expected to appear in bond court later today at 26th and California.
Ardelean, a five-year veteran of the force, allegedly drove his SUV over the center line and crashed into another car in 2900 block of North Damen, Cook County prosecutors say.
The crash killed Miguel Flores, 22, and Erick Laguna, 21, two longtime residents of Cicero, authorities said.
Ardelean was initially charged with a misdemeanor in the case.
If convicted of the new charges, Ardelean faces six to 28 years in prison, authorities said.
Reminds me of the firm in the early 90’s that was hired to do the psyc evaluations for new hires. They were paid per person. They got caught speeding through the evaluations, randomly passing and failing people, so that they could bill for the highest number of evaluations done. This new version sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Hey SCC! What gives? I thought we agreed to ban the former 222, turned man loving fed, from participating on a copper's post? You guys don't visit their site, do you? Why would you? Dump that chump from putting his bullshit on this legitimate site.

Off topic but important:
They caught the two a holes that killed 2 police officers in Georgia today. I hope they fry. RIP officers.
Just when I thought that there was no one dumber than the investigators who work for the LA Princess.
Lawyers and Private Investigators looking into allegations?
The lawyers will try to sign all the complainants up to sue the city. The Private Investigators will beg the LA Princess to help them become the police.
Forget my private fantasies about her. I no longer love her.
check this out:
Meet the Rumbler.
The high-tech blaster is being used along with the traditional siren. It is aimed at grabbing people's attention and getting them to make room for officers responding to emergencies, helping police navigate through traffic faster and safer. People can feel it from about 200 feet away.
D.C. police have 49 cars equipped with the Rumblers, spread across the city. The Rumbler is part of a lights-and-sirens package the department is phasing in over several years as it gets new cars and retires old ones. In about four years, all of the department's 767 marked patrol cars likely will have them.
With a pair of high-output woofers and an amplifier, the Rumbler is not louder than a regular siren. It gets its message across with low-frequency sound waves that shake everything, including rear-view mirrors.
The Rumbler is meant to be used judiciously, in situations where motorists should pull over to make way for the police. It is timed to turn off automatically after 10 seconds. Still, police officials said, some people might be startled when they first experience it. And it remains to be seen if the public will view all that shaking as a helpful warning or just a nuisance.
I love the list of private investigators you posted, Shavedlongcock! Brought back some TV memories for me! Right on!
Our rights, whatever we have or think we still have are not displayed enough to city government. We as members of a union, expect to be represented and protected. Over the last six mounths I have observed some of the most FUBAR activity go on with nothing but lip service being given to members of FOP and a wait and take it as it comes attitude by the city and this membership. Our union is not out front in their face, in the press (T.V.) in the paper. Let the Citizens know what is happening to their police department besides officers going to jail. I can remember years back when officers were hitting the dirt, citizens rallied and were able to give officers bullit proof vests free of charge. We are being displayed in a bad light! Our UNION should get off their ass, not be affraid, and let the public know whats going on.
Friday the 18th of Jan 2008 Bel mont and Western there is a court date at 1330HRS for the lawyer who damaged the Maines car at the end of Dec. Lets get out there and show our troops some support and stick it in this lawyers a##.
The female at Kennedy H.S. (as mentioned above) is useless. First, it was not or I should say it should not have been a 10-1; kids fighting kids and both P.O.s safe. This was her first mistake, emergency yes 10-1 not.
Second, you just got the entire early roll call flying from 008 to Archer & Narragansett and what do these two school officers do? They drive off saying they will handle it in school tomorrow (today); WTF!!! You endandered P.O.s who rushed like mad to get to the 10-1 (that wasn't) and you do nothing? Finally, on days that school is out she cannot/refuses to work alone. What makes her better than any other P.O. working 99?
While on the 008 school patrol, looks like a certain P.O. V.K. made his phone calls crying to his juice saying he wants back on second watch which he missed by bid and is getting it. It must be nice!!! I wish I had that call seeing I am changing all my side gigs to work around my new watch and have more time.

$100,000 REWARD OFFERED IN MURDER OF MAYWOOD POLICE OFFICER
Robert D. Grant, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Elvia Williams, Chief of the Maywood, Illinois Police Department (MPD) are asking for the public's help in identifying the individual(s) responsible for the October 23, 2006 murder of MPD Officer Thomas Wood.
A nine year veteran of the MPD, Officer Wood was found shot to death in his marked patrol vehicle near the intersection of 6th Avenue and Erie Street, at the end of his scheduled afternoon shift. Officer Wood was shot multiple times and was pronounced dead after being transported to Loyola Medical Center. Officer Wood, who was a canine officer for the MPD, was seated in the driver's seat of his vehicle with the engine running and the vehicle in gear. Robbery did not appear to be a motive as Officer Wood's weapon and wallet were still on his person.
Officer Wood was active in the MPD's effort to investigate and eliminate gang activity within the village and it is believed that his murder was related to these efforts.
Officer Wood was 37 years of age and is survived by his wife and five children.
A reward of up to $100,000 is being offered by the Village of Maywood for information that leads to the identification and arrest of the person or persons responsible for this crime.
In addition to joining Chief Williams in publicizing this reward offer, Mr. Grant also wants to announce that the FBI will be assisting the MPD, not only with the investigation into Officer Wood's murder, but will also begin investigating gang activity and drug trafficking in the western suburb.
Anyone having any information about the murder of Officer Wood is asked to call the Chicago office of the FBI at (312) 421-6700.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Additional copies of the attached reward flyer are available from the Chicago FBI's press office at (312) 829-1199.
I smell a contract with a connected aldercreature's "cousin" or "brother" who is now an expert in investigations.
Outsource the complaints and investigations? Are you kidding me??? Hire more people and train them CORRECTLY. Period. As far as having soooooo many cases, I am a decective that carries WELL OVER the 30 plus cases they are whining about. Do your job.
Hey shavedcock: you forgot Mannix.

Well, its about time!! What took so long.
At one point in time I thought that Daley would eventually go prison. Now I realize how much "whack" he has nationally. Who else could save their face by having their police department secretly put under federal oversight? That is what we are going to have; a fed in charge of IAD, Training and Superintendent. This is the exact same ting the Feds would have done. Are you gonna try to tell me that Daley did this of his own free will?
Maybe the mayor will hire the People's Law Office. Flint Taylor and that gaggle of parasites will give a cop a break.
Hmmm, is R.Vanecko, the mayor's nephew a lawyer? He'd be perfect for a money making contract like that.

J-Fed appears to be falling in line with da boss jr.
Nothing will change for the better at this rate.
once again
it is not your fellow officer who is fucking you over
it is the SHITTY (AKA: MAYOR DELAY)
OFF TOPIC EMERGENCY:
It appears the Cook County State's Attorney Office is continuing the fight to use administrative breath tests in criminal proceedings.
In the case of PO Ardelean, the officer refused a criminal breath test. Today, the ASA at the bond hearing stated that experts would use his administrative breath results (which were under the legal limit) to extrapolate an illegal BAC at the time of the collision.
Where is FOP?
It appears that it would be unwise to follow any direct order under any circumstance that would provide evidence against yourself. This would apply to breath tests for DUI or ANY allegation that an officer committed a crime.
With the top job up for grabs, the CCSAO (Cook Co. States Attorney Office) has trampled 5th Amendment rights for all officers in the CPD. Aldermen were ready to march in the streets because of ALLEGATIONS that murders' constitutional rights were violated, but instead they settled for a $20 million payout. Now, the CCSAO openly professes that CPD officers can be forced to give evidence against themselves and the FOP is silent.
Maybe it would be best if we all just remained silent. I hear Jody will open a new unit up with juicy perks and we can all spend our remaining days climbing over each other trying to get in. Then, once the unit closes, we can use this blog to throw mud at each other. Because after all that's what this job is really all about.
The outside contract will be allotted to a well qualified team of experienced investigators. The ownership of the company will be riddled with names such as Daley, Vanecko, Thompson and PeeWee Herman.

You are a racist anti-Mick. What is more, John Dineen did more for the CPD rank and file than you can ever dream of doing.

Any competent toxicologist can extrapolate what his BAC was at the time of the crash. Maybe the crash wasn't his fault (I hope) but he was most certainly DUI at the time of the crash.
You and others like you need to quit apologizing for dumb behavior. We're not immune from the law. Start acting like you have some brains.
WEIS SAYS WE CAN LIVE OUTSIDE THE CITY LIMITS... IN NEW CONTRACT...
YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Listen to this scenario;
The city will hire the lowest bidder if they decide to have a lawyer/law firm investigate the CR's.
The lawyer(s) will then have other shady-ass attorney's contact the offender/complaints of these CR / TRR's.
YES!!!!!! Another great idea for the city to blow MILLIONS of taxpayer dollars.
News flash! I told you a recession is here.
OT) I work on the East end of 008, yesterday we had a 10-1 at Archer and Mobile beat 878 called it! Got to the scene the female (Name withheld

REPLY: she just stood there right, scared, afraid, bet she didn't even use the radio. It happens all to often, even with male P.O.'s. FUCK THAT! that drives me crazy, way too many pussy coppers and pussy bosses on this job.

I believe that wasnt 009, it was those gun teams guys from area one. Great hit, right around the corner from the station, thats pretty funny and right across the street from Daleys moms house too.
***
REPLY: you got to be kidding me, on same block of the 9th station. if dalys mom was alive the car assigned to watch her house 24/7 could have jumped on the paper. was this shit on the news? if so what channel so i can look up the juicy details?
The best thing that happened in 009 is Paul Niezabitowski running for Trustee.

"Why is this city outsourcing everything?"
It's the Swag.
And the 'plausible' deniability.
And the 'degrees' of separation.
Just like you see in any criminal enterprise.
You didn't think this city, and county, was being run by anyone other than criminals, did you?
"Contract??
Yus don neeeeeed no steeeeenkin' contraaaaact!!!"
Pancho Daley
off the subject. good job last night by the 9th dist tac guys. they hit a house around the corner from the station with a warrent and got a bunch of guns from a bangers house. keep up the good work
HEY BEATOFF!! THEY AREA ONE GUN TEAM EXECUTED THAT WARRANT, COPPERS FROM 009 COULDN'T CATCH A COLD, MOST WORTHLESS POLICE IN THE CITY EVEN WHEN THEY LEAVE 009 AND INFECT OTHER DISTRICTS WITH THEIR LAZINESS

I totally agree. We are the THIRD LARGEST MEDIA MARKET IN THE US....use it already!!!
and your surprised by this?
OFF TOPIC:
A certain someone is on the Merit list. This certain someone just recently had a prisoner walk into the station with a loaded revolver. The subject was brought into the station for a warrant.
Great Merit Selection.
I guess this person is so smart he or she doesnt know to search or effectively search someone prior to being brought into the station or put into a squad car for that matter. A certain sergeant replied "it happens." What the fuck?
Being late for work happens! Not finding dope up someones ass happens! But a loaded Joker from Batman revolver in his waistband should never happen. This is the same person a week after getting on tact put a firearm in a blue property bag for inventory. WOW
The tact LT never got word of this, which is fine to take care of shit in house. But same tact LT was made aware of negativity surrounding certain officers in the back. I wonder why there is so much negativity.
speaking of useless females whats with the two nitwits from area 2.
FYI one ran around with the former dc of 004 who retired as deputy chief of dicks, named _________,(clue what you drink in the morning) who made her a merit gang specialist.
The other is your run of the mill home wrecker, ask poor Mrs. O________, kush jobs her whole career, office clerk in district, assigned to OPS as p/o etc etc now a detective. Both work the desk all the time over more senior detectives. Both believe they deserve special treatment.
Many stories about these two in the naked city. There in the dicks just like in patrol, special people who avoid all the dirty work.
off topic But
anyone hear about the new real estate transfer tax?
Supposedly its going to be $10.50 tax due the city for every thousand dollars of price.
From the seller and the buyer each
So they get $21 for every thousand in sales price
I hope those who vote for it drown

You may not want to vote for me because I was too lazy to get my ass to the meetings BUT I should be allowed to run
Thanks
1/17/2008 01:56:00 AM
Why the hell would anyone vote for someone who has never been to a meeting? Current FOP sucks, but at least they have been to meetings! What is your platform going to be- "vote for me with a lazy aye"
What I was saying you ignoramus is that attanding meetings shouldnt be a requisite to be on the ballot.
Voting for someone who doesnt attend meetings is a different issue ya fucking drunken GED 2 year wonder
Keep patting yourselves on the back for doing zilch. JJ and TB will continue the REAL POLICE legacy...Rock on Beat 921!!!

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!!!
Hey Fatstevich,
Put your clothes on, get out of your mama's basement and shut the FUCK UP!!! You and TB aren't a pimple on a REAL COPPER"S ass. I saw your reports and if no one on your paper gets indicted they should thank their luck stars. TB can't do shit on a computer and you're so stupid you couldn't write a good report if the state's attorney told you how to write it! You and TB should go back to your beat and continue locking up your "holding the offender" calls and quit pineing for tact....you'll only embarrass yourselves. Besides, just in case you don't know, NOBODY WANTS YOU UPSTAIRS!!!!!!!!
The river is dirty enough that you are not likely to get charged with poluting a waterway.
some of the sewage that left 009 flowed into the airport

You are absolutely right that any competant toxicologist can figure our a bac level "x" amount of hours after a crash, that's not what is pissing people off. There are court rulins that clearly state that an administrative submission of a chemical test CANNOT be used in a criminal case due to the duress the person is under (ie, loss of job if refused)...Not saying the officer was 100% right, but the state wouldn't charge joe nobody and they are trying their best to find a reason to charge him...That's BS

Regarding 1/17/2008 09:11:00 AM:
On behalf of all those in 018 who greave the temporary loss of our beloved former Kaptain's kompany kar, a heartfelt apology is sent here and now to Kommanduh Kolman for any inconvenience caused by this wanton act. A condolence card, along with one penny to defer your out-of-pocket costs for the tow, is in the inter-office mail.
Get well soon! We miss you!!
1/17/2008 02:57:00 AM
To bad it was the Area 1 Gun Team. The 009th district coppers are to retarded to actual pull off something like that.
Jim Rockford, Magnum PI, Mannix, Lt. Columbo, Sgt. Pepper Anderson, Martin Milner and Kent McCord (OneAdam12), Adrian Monk, Father Dowling, The Rookies, Sheriff Andy Taylor and Deputy Barney Fife are just a few of the Private Investigators that are currently on the approved list of outside investigators!
************************************
What about Toody and Muldoon (Car 54) or Spinner and Paddlefoot? CHIPS? Rockfords Dad? Martin Milner? Linc? Broderick Crawford? Sgt. Friday? Perry Mason and Della Street? Lt. Hamilton Burger? Lets go! Plenty of candidates with at least as many smarts as or current IPRA crop. Speaking of smarts what abou Maxwell Smart?
Maybe they can outsource the Crs to India. I mean we dont do any work in America anymore anyway, the complainer can call a hotline number... example:
Operator: (accent)OOOpeces
Dude: (urban accent) huh?? Dis OPS?
Operator: hes, it ooooopeces,
Dude: two detectives just jumped on me and then took my ends
Operator: how tall these detecteves?
Dude: what that matter?
ahhhhh, you get the humor!
Guys, you are all missing an important point here. If they hire private attorneys to handle these cases, that in turn gives them access to all your records, and personal info. What then will stop these bottom-feeders from contacting these wonderful citizens who are lodging complaints now, to begin lawsuits against you at a later date? Not a good thing at all for anyone.

For the millionth time, our residency requirement is not codified in the ILCS. Bringing the residency issue to an arbitrator is codified.
We cannot bring the residency issue to an arbitrator and have the arbitrator overturn it.
If the city agrees with the FOP and it is allowed by the city it does not need to be brought before an arbitrator.
ILCS has nothing to do with said agreement.
As it stands, we cannot bring up residency as a proposal with the city, and then subsequently bring it before an arbitrator when the city tells us to pound salt like we can with other issues in the contract.
There is a difference between that and what you said.
We are not locked into the residency requirement by the ILCS. It can be bargained away.
Off topic....Speaking of useless females, beware 012 2nd watch! A certain female PPO is a RAT!!! If you think about it, you will figure out who it is. I can tell you it's not Kevin's kid.
You said:
In the case of PO Ardelean, the officer refused a criminal breath test. Today, the ASA at the bond hearing stated that experts would use his administrative breath results (which were under the legal limit) to extrapolate an illegal BAC at the time of the collision.
Where is FOP?
It appears that it would be unwise to follow any direct order under any circumstance that would provide evidence against yourself. This would apply to breath tests for DUI or ANY allegation that an officer committed a crime.
********************************
Asshole, why don't you contact the FOP before accusing them of silence/inaction on this issue? Why do you idiots insist on asking your retarded questions about the FOP to SCC? Why not simply ask FOP? SCC is not FOP. The truth of this matter is that FOP wrote the legal brief that cause a judge to recently EXCLUDE an administratively ordered blow that the State wanted to use as evidence. The State will likely appeal and this will be the big test case. FOP is extremely concerned and proactive on this issue. They are out front fighting for your rights. Go to a meeting and/or visit the Lodge sometime, you big dork. Get involved.
I'm going with good ole Dan Tanna or Barney Miller. Hell, Bookman the library cop is better than some outside layer type.
WEIS SAYS WE CAN LIVE OUTSIDE THE CITY LIMITS... IN NEW CONTRACT...

Can we follow our leader? If this is true, unfuckinbelievable.
With real estate taxes rising as they are, we will have to live outside the city. A proposal is in the works to fill in the east end of Calumet Park right up to the Indiana border and truck in surplus FEMA preFabs to provide coppers with affordable housing. Needless to say, as most gov'ment deals go, part of the homes will go to displaced families on subsidies.

She's not a PPO anymore... unless there are 2...
SCC, is this true? Did Cmdr Kolman's (013) car get ticketed and towed in 018? If this is true, does anyone have the 411 on the circumstances? Where was she parked? What happened when she went to retrieve it at the pound?
And last, don't the people in 018 know what an unmarked squad looks like, even the few unmarked exempt Chevys we have out there? Have we become so mentally dumbed out in the Districts now?
Fore 1/20/2008 01:14:00 PM:
Perhaps Kummanduh Kolman ought to drive a bright red 1958 Plymouth Fury, then the "mentally dumbed out in the Districts" would be more likely to get hip wit da programme...
Muchas gracias to the peeps in the Districts who don't know what an unmarked exempt Chevy looks like. Keep up the good work!
Before we get the "Live in the city order" rescinded, remember one important fact. These tiny brick salt boxes we have paid 280,000.00 for and still hold mortgages on will be worth much less. Just sayin'.
A good Sgt just got launched from 009 tact and is now assigned to 1st watch. a shame. Sgt MZ with over 20 yrs on this job gets kicked off the tact team and replaced by a wife beater LAPA heavy who happens to be heavy politically. Way to go Gene. Another brillant decision. Any thing to boost your political carrer
